  • Good overview of expectation. I don't believe there are any guarantees implied. I met with Dr Rogers and he was very forthcoming with percentages with respect to risk.

  • Wow, they are magicians at VUI. Because these tumors (??) were confined on preop imaging they KNEW that there was no spread. The rest of us can only give our patients percentages and likelihoods. At the risk of sounding petulant, isn't this guy being a little mislead in voicing what sounds like a guarantee of cure? Dr. Rogers is a great guy and fantastic robotic surgeon, but this ad is misleading and does a disservice to patient expectation. Imaging isn't perfect. He'll still need followup.
